You like serious racing this is for you
F1 2010 is a good game, it certainly is the best Formula 1 game ever made to date and really immerse you into the whole experience from the main menu to the garage and then onto the track. The career mode and the multiplayer are all fun and competitive, even if you are not good at the game, you can still enjoy yourself. F1 2010 could possibly be one of the best racing games of the year but with upcoming title such as Gran Turismo 5 and Need for Speed in not sure F1 will get all the credit it deserves and with the few problems like the repetitive speech and occasional AI flaws I would recommend that you only get F1 2010 if you are interested in the sport and want to experience the thrills of travelling at 180mph on some of the most prestigious tracks and you want to pit your skills against some of the greatest racing drivers of our time, as well as dealing with the logistical challenges of arranging what lap to pit, which tyres to use and what car setup to go for.
F1 2010 is certainly a good game but if you're looking for a more generic racing game, this is not for you and I would recommend Grid or the Dirt series which are also created by the same Codemasters team and suffer from fewer flaws than F1 but even saying that I can't help but warn you F1 is a totally unique racing experience and can become quite addictive, especially when you get into the swing of thing.
